The art of prepping means considering all the dismal doomsday possibilities, including a nuclear meltdown. While some call it being paranoid, I like to think of myself as someone who sleeps better than others at night. If and when a fallout occurs, at least I have given myself a fighting chance. You probably won’t be…
A firearm is truly the ultimate in self-defense weaponry. While I do have a list of the best fixed blade survival knives for good reason and I fully believe everyone should take some jiu jitsu, a firearm trumps all when it comes to self-defense. And if SHTF, you are most definitely going to want a…
Most preppers have at some point asked themselves what the ultimate, most powerful, most affordable, bug out vehicle would be. If you are at a point of considering it a bug out vehicle, as a prepper, you’ve likely surpassed the point of needing to gather up your bug out essentials. However, if you haven’t, I…
As I’ve reported prior, an EMP attack is not as unlikely of an attack as many people want to believe. In fact, it is the most logical attack strategy for many of our enemies. A North Korean EMP attack could realistically happen and I’d say the risk supersedes that of the widely reported potential nuclear…
A Ketogenic diet promotes eating healthy fats and moderate intakes of protein over carbohydrates. The diet has been a lightning rod of controversy for years, particularly as it has grown in mainstream popularity. Ten years ago saying “ketogenic diet” would have caused utter confusion. Today, people at least think of it as some form of…
Often times, we discuss ad nauseam what TO pack in your bug out bag. But what about bug out bag mistakes? In my How To Prepare a Bug Out Bag article, I will go over common bug out bag mistakes that could leave a survivalist on a much shorter timeline. By learning how to prepare…
A tactical bug out bag could very well save your life. All too often, people living in the western world live mentally detached from the harsh realities of life. We feel that nothing bad could ever happen to us. We see the “third world” as a place we simply can’t relate to and that doesn’t…
Of all the things you can prep for, an asteroid really isn’t one of them. Surving an asteroid impact probably isn’t at the top of your stress list. If a large enough asteroid strikes the earth, preppers and the unprepared all go down in exactly the same manner. But I suppose we shouldn’t sweat what…
Whenever I bring up the topic of a survival garden, I get a lot of feedback about Matt Damon being trapped on Mars. But there is a more realistic approach when it comes to building a garden that can supply food for many years to come. We don’t live in fear that society will collapse….
Every prepper knows that a survival situation could happen at any time. Being prepared is the essence of survival. And preparation means accumulating skills, goods and knowledge while everything is going well.
Choosing from so many damn survival knives can make one’s head spin. Good survival knives tend to be priced between $30 and $60. There are all kinds. Multi-use (swiss army), fixed blades (awesome power) and folding versions (probably the most reliable and useful). So what’s the best survival knives for the money? Or heck, what’s…

When I first told my friends I had been oil pulling, they looked at me as if I were crazy. “What’s oil pulling?” they’d say. “Is this another silly alternative health quackery thing?” You sort of have to expect that when you tell people you swish coconut oil in your mouth for 20 minutes a…
What is a “Bug Out Bag?” A bug out bag, sometimes called BOB, is a bag that contains essential emergency items. The bag is intended to help you and your family survive in dire circumstances, like an emergency. For example, what if you had to evacuate due to a natural disaster like an earthquake, tornado…
For those who oppose fluoridation in public tap water, a recent study is being called “the biggest moment in the history of this whole debate.” And it also has health officials scrambling to make up excuses. A new study links fluoride consumption during pregnancy to lower IQs in children.
Back in 2015, Jennifer Crouch wasn’t sure what to do. It was then that University of Missouri Hospital’s Missouri Psychiatric Center staff recommended that she do something seemingly absurd. They told her that she should file a complaint with the state medical board against that then Doctor Justin LaMonda was committing vile acts against Crouch….
The season for hurricanes is most definitely here. After devastating Hurricanes Irma and Harvey unleashed the wrath of both financial and personal devastation on the states of Texas, Louisiana, and Florida, most Gulf states are hoping for a break. But as fortune may well have it, a break may not be in the cards if a…
I feel like many of you are going to think we are going too far out there with this story. But hold your horses, my friends, because there may well be a little supporting evidence. On September 11th, the city of Los Angeles, as well as a number of regions located in the southwestern region…
